Russian Lyrics
Ochi chyorniye, ochi strastniye
Ochi zhguchiye i prekrasniye
Kak lyublyu ya vas! Kak boyus' ya vas
Znat', uvidel vas ya v nedobriy chas
Okh, nedarom vi glubini temney
Vizhu traur v vas po dushe moyey
Vizhu plamya v vas ya pobednoye:
Sozhzheno na nem serdtse bednoye
No ne grusten ya, ne pechalen ya
Uteshitel'na mne sud'ba moya:
Vsyo, chto luchshego v zhizni bog dal nam,
V zhertvu otdal ya ognevim glazam!
Translation
Oh, your dark eyes, your passionate eyes,
Your burning and beautiful eyes!
How I love you! How I fear you!
Yet I know, I saw you in an inopportune time (?)
In your ocean deep eyes,
I see grieving for my soul,
I see your burning victory,
And my poor heart burning with it.
But I am not sad,
All the best that God has given us
I would sacrifice for your fire eyes!
not quite Jewish, but close enough... this is one of the most popular gypsy ballads. this is one of the most popular gypsy ballads.
